NICE!!!!

Thankfully it is not too deep...but fearing it may come apart... :(

That´s a rather sober statement made by Steinle. And he knows what he´s talking about with the Fw 200 restoration in the background...
Nevertheless my dream still would be to have the Dutch Waddenzee Do 215 and this Do 17Z side by side on the restoration rigs...in Hungary.
Hopefully the salt water has shown mercy to the aluminum sheets.

Are they also planing to do someting like this ? The He115 has now been submerged for almost a year in only fresh wather. We are planing to add some chemicals to it this year.

gorgeous projects!

I'm a bit surprised that no viable Do 17 project surfaced in the former soviet union since many twin engine project came out from there, including Ju 88, SB bombers, Pe-2 etc.

Anyway I'm hoping one day to see a He 111, a Ju 88 and a Do 17 next to each other in the Battle of Britain Museum.

They've built two poly tunnels at the RAFM's conservation facility where they will spray it with a citric acid solution developed by London University. All this according to a BBC report.
